On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . . six Eggnog Bars! Or, take just one (if you can stop). These great bar cookies are rich with a custard layer that is unusual for a cookie. You can substitute brandy for the rum or use flavoring instead of alcohol. In a pinch, a little molasses mixed with water will replace the flavoring.
